Nollywood comedy legend Amaechi Muonagor died on Sunday at the age of 62 following kidney failure, local media reported.
His death comes just a few days after he appealed for help to raise funds for a kidney transplant in India.
During his career, Muonagor appeared in dozens of films, including Aki and Paw Paw, one of his most famous roles where he played the father of two mischief-making, over-exuberant teenagers.
Amaechi Muonagor was nominated for the 2017 Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice Awards for Best Actor.
His death comes just a few weeks after Nigeria lost another Nollywood star John Okafor, better known as Mr Ibu, who also needed medical help.
